How it's used
While literally meaning a foolish woman, this term is frequently used in a teasing or affectionate way among friends rather than as a harsh insult. It carries a much softer, more playful tone than calling someone 蠢人. When used between close friends or partners, it often implies a sense of endearment or lighthearted exasperation.
